Episode 59: Kathryn Sullivan

Recorded March 20, 2023. Kathryn Sullivan is a woodworker who focuses on restoration and conservation. Over the course of our conversation Kathryn highlights the importance of communication with their clients. Learning more about what a piece will be used for and the client's motivation for Kathryn's services informs how they will approach the restoration process. We also dig into the series of choices Kathryn made that brought them to restoration and how their academic background helps inform their work. They have a unique perspective around our material culture and its role in cultural heritage that you will not want to miss. To find more of Kathryn’s work visit their website: www.kathrynsullivanrestoration.com , Instagram: @ksullivanrestoration , TikTok @queercusstellata , LA Conservators: www.laconservators.comHelp keep the podcast alive!
